Chapter 71: Shi Qian's Special Temperament
The young man was stunned, staring and shouting: "Hey, brother, you also know Liangshan! Who else is there in Liangshan now? How is my brother Song Gongming now?"
Uh, "Are you really Shi Qian?" I hesitated for a moment, but still asked uncertainly. This is too unbelievable. But if you don't say that Water Margin is set in the Song Dynasty, it has been a thousand years now. Even if it was at that time, it should have been reincarnated long ago! According to the information I know. The underworld is cleaned up once a hundred years. It is impossible to avoid reincarnation.
Also, no matter in novels, movies or dramas, Shi Qian is always portrayed as a short, mean, middle-aged man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks. It really has nothing to do with this sunny boy!
Shi Qian frowned and suddenly slapped the table. With a bang, a wallet appeared on the table as if by magic the moment he took his hand away.
This wallet looks very familiar to me. Looking closely, isn't it my wallet?
"Okay, you are Shi Qian, I believe you. So, did you take anything else?"
Shi Qian rolled his eyes at me and said unhappily, "I'm poor, but you're even poorer than me. You know you need to spend money to be up there, right? How come you don't even take a hair with you when you go to the underworld? I dare not touch any of your spells or magic tools!"
I scratched my head in embarrassment. But I can't blame myself. I rarely spend money. Besides, I have a special car to pick me up when I go out. The only time I spent money was when I took the bus on credit, and Niu Da paid for it.
When he came to the underworld, he forgot the most important thing. It is said that money can make the devil work. If he has no money, even a hero will bow down for a penny.
I thought about it again and again. I felt depressed. What should I do when I need to take care of things in the future? But when I looked at Shi Qian, my eyes suddenly lit up.
"Don't look at me. It's true that I'm in your hands now, but I'm as poor as you. Even if you ask me to steal, there are three things I won't steal. One, I won't steal from ordinary people and good people. Two, I won't steal from the elderly, the weak, women and children. Three, I won't steal money to save their lives. There are also ten things I won't take and a hundred things I won't do!~~~~!"
"Shut up!" Shi Qian has a problem of being a chatterbox. Once he starts talking, he speaks righteously, just like the Yellow River overflowing! If I don't stop, I'm afraid these ten, a hundred, or a thousand things will take me a whole day, and I won't be able to do anything else!
Shi Qian was startled by my shouting, and looked at me unhappily and said, "You should be the one to shut up now. If I shout loudly, people outside might hear me. Then, let's see who will suffer."
I couldn't help getting angry when I saw Shi Qian's pretentious look, so I stood up and kicked him: "Damn it! If you have the guts, just shout! Do you think I don't know that you are also hiding from the soldiers? Although I don't know what happened, but with your identity as Shi Qian, you should have been reincarnated in the underworld a long time ago. You can't run away even if you are caught. I'm afraid this house won't belong to you!"
I seldom use violence. In fact, I really don't like violence. But I don't know why, when facing Shi Qian, I felt such an impulse. I felt very comfortable after kicking him. It seems that it's not that I have changed, but that Shi Qian is too good at attracting bad luck.
Shi Qian stumbled and fell to the ground after being kicked by me, and got up with a wronged look on his face. "Okay, you're so cruel, huh, even if you guessed it, so what? At worst, we can just wait it out, the one who came out of Liangshan is not a hero."
Shi Qian simply put on an attitude of a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. He stood up and lazily half-lay on the chair, looking like he was ready to be taken advantage of.
I couldn't help but be amused by this guy. I walked over and sat next to Shi Qian and said, "I'm just a passer-by. I'll stay here for a few days and then go back. It's fate that we met. You've been in the underworld for a thousand years. I'm afraid there are some things you can't let go of. Maybe I can help you and we can benefit each other, which is also a good thing."
I had to adopt some conciliatory policies to deal with Shi Qian, a thief who was almost a master in the underworld and a fierce bandit who had been infected with the habits of Liangshan. Besides, I was unfamiliar with the underworld, so it was best to have a helper. If I didn't let Shi Qian help sincerely, who knew if he would suddenly attack me halfway.
Shi Qian was really convinced by my words. He looked at me with a doubtful look on his face and asked, "Are you kidding me? Can you still go back?"
"Nonsense, I can't go back. I'm crazy and I came here to find Nie!" I said angrily. I don't know why, but at this moment, I felt familiar with him and couldn't help but feel the urge to be with Nie. This is his special temperament, right?
Shi Qian looked at me, was silent for a while, and then said: "You can cooperate, but I can't stay here anymore. If you can take me back to the human world, I can consider helping you."
I frowned and asked, "If you go back to the human world, what will happen to your household registration here? Also, the present is completely different from your time. If you are not used to it after leaving, it may be difficult for you to reincarnate when you come back!"
Shi Qian waved his hand nonchalantly: "What's the point of having a household registration? I've been an illegal resident here for a long time, otherwise why would I hide?"
Thinking about it, it seems to make sense. However, there is only one soul-calling talisman, and it is not impossible to bring Shi Qian to the human world, but it is a bit troublesome. With my current ability, it is difficult to draw a soul-calling talisman. However, we can find a compromise.
"It's a good deal, but I can't take you out directly. Wait until I'm done. I'll go back and get you a soul-attracting spell, and then set up a soul-returning formation for you. Whether you can get out at that time depends on your luck. To be honest, I can only give you a chance, and I can't guarantee success."
I said this sincerely. I have no intention of hiding anything. After all, in the practice of metaphysics, it is the basic principle of self-discipline to keep one's word. When one reaches a high level, it can evolve into a principle of following one's words. It can be said that every word and action is a practice. No room for carelessness.
"Okay, brother, once you've made an appointment with me, you can never catch up with me. I, Shi Qian, recognize you. But by the way, what are you doing here?" Shi Qian looked at me and asked.
"Looking for someone." I said truthfully.
"Who?" Shi Qian asked.
"A female ghost named Ningxiang."
"Oh, do you know where she is?"
"have no idea!"
"Then do you know who took him away?"
"I don't know. I just know it has something to do with the land. We traveled there by car."
"Do you have any clues?"
"No!"
"Do you know anyone here?"
"No."
"Then you should know which land is in charge!"
"have no idea!"
Shi Qian was a little mad at my ignorance: "Are you here on vacation? Or are you looking for someone?"
I scratched my head awkwardly and said with certainty, "Looking for someone."
Shi Qian was completely depressed and sat down. He sighed and said, "Look at you, you don't have any money, but you don't even have a clue. You are the local government, a computer! Just use Baidu to find out!"
"Uh, does the underworld have these things?" I asked in confusion. I was wondering. The underworld is also using high technology, so why are the ghost soldiers still holding cold weapons in their hands!
Shi Qian looked at me with disdain: "What's so strange about that? You humans burn everything here!"
Well! I was completely saddened by my own IQ. Indeed, even in today's paper-making shops, there are cars, phones, computers, and beauties! It's no wonder that the underworld has them.
But I suddenly had an idea: "Shi Qian, you said this place is high-tech, so can we call the higher-ups? If we can, we'll have money."
Shi Qian frowned and thought: "That's possible, but this is a cross-border long-distance call, usually only ghost messengers have such a phone function ."
I was immediately happy and stared at Shi Qian with a smile in my eyes.
"Bah, don't even think about it. As the saying goes, it's the officers and soldiers who catch thieves, you want me to go to jail!" Shi Qian was frightened by the look I gave him and jumped up unhappily.
"Hey, money!" I said only one sentence.
Shi Qian immediately sat down again like a deflated ball.
There were still many ghost soldiers searching the streets, but Shi Qian walked out without paying any attention.
At first I thought Shi Qian was just a man of great skill and courage. But after a moment I knew I was wrong.
Shi Qian walked to the gate and secretly opened it a crack. After a while, he found his target.
I looked out the window of the house and saw Shi Qian waving his hands continuously, looking very anxious.
Just as I was wondering, a black-faced ghost wearing a uniform with the word "Cha" written on his chest came to the door. This was undoubtedly the underworld's yincha.
The black-faced emissary came closer, looking very annoyed. Shi Qian also signaled the black-faced emissary to come closer and talk with a sly look in his eyes.
My heart skipped a beat. People from Liangshan wouldn't betray their partners, would they?
Shi Qian was seen whispering and pointing at the house. The more the ghost heard, the wider his smile became, and he seemed very excited. He rubbed his hands and took out his phone.
I couldn't sit still any longer, so I grabbed the ghost-beating ruler and thunder talisman and headed out. Damn, it looks like I've really been sold out!
Just as I was about to rush out, I saw Shi Qian again, holding down the phone that the shady agent was about to raise. He looked around with a sly look, and then muttered something in a low voice.
I resisted the urge and sat down again, with a chill in my eyes. Things had changed and I no longer cared about killing people.
The ghost nodded continuously, patted Shi Qian's shoulder with appreciation, and pulled out a chain.
This is the standard equipment of the Yincha, the soul-locking chain. It targets all souls. As long as the soul does not have a body, this soul-locking chain will basically lock it up.
The ghost came over with a chain in his hand and a ferocious look on his face, kicked the door open, and threw the soul-locking chain over.
I took a step to the side and swung the ghost ruler directly without any fancy moves.
"Dang." The soul-locking chain was shaken and flew to the side with a crisp sound.
"How dare you! I am the underworld's underworld messenger. How dare you resist arrest?" The underworld messenger immediately stared at me fiercely, and a whip suddenly appeared in his hand. His face was fierce, but strangely, his steps were unconsciously retreating.
